Ke = (1/2)mv²

m = 100kg, v = 10 km/s = 10*1000 = 10000m/s

Ke = (1/2)*100*10000 

Ke = 500000 Joules

Kinetic energy is solved by the formula,
                          KE = 0.5 x m x v²
First, convert the given speed in km/s to that with unit of m/s.
                        (10 km/s) x (1000 m/ 1 km) = 10000 m/s
Use the formula to obtain the KE
                           KE = 0.5 x (100 kg) x (10000 m/s )²
Thus, the value of its kinetic energy is 5x10^9 J.

Which value is most likely to be the pH of a salt that is formed by the reaction of a strong acid and a weak base?
Mice21 [21]
In a hydrolysis reaction between a strong acid and a weak base, the salt formed will have a pH less than 7. By virtue of this phenomenon between <span>weak bases and strong acids</span>, the anion of the strong acid will fail to attract the hydrogen ion<span>, while the cation from the weak base will donate a </span>proton<span> to the water forming a hydronium ion</span><span>.

A veritical brass rod of circular section is loaded by placing a 10 kg wt on top of it .if it's length is 1 m. it's radius of cr
Inga [223]

Answer:

4.37 * 10^-4 J

Explanation:

Energy stored :

mgΔl / 2

m = mass = 10kg ; g = 9.8m/s² ; r = cross sectional Radius = 1cm = 1 * 10-2 m

Δl = mgl / πr²Y

Y = Youngs modulus = Y=3.5 ×10^10 ; l = Length = 1m

Δl = (10 * 9.8 * 1) / π * (1 * 10^-2)²* 3.5 ×10^10

Δl = 98 / 3.5 * π * 10^6

Δl = 0.00000891267

Energy stored :

mgΔl / 2

(10 * 9.8 * 0.00000891267) / 2

= 0.00043672083 J

4.37 * 10^-4 J

When a 25-kg crate is pushed across a frictionless horizontal floor with a force of 200 N, directed 20 below the horizontal, th
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Option E is correct 310N

Explanation:

Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N

The force directed 20° below the horizontal

Mass of crate is m = 25kg

Weight of the crate can be determine using

W = mg

g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²

W = 25×9.8

W = 245 N

Check attachment. For free body diagram and better understanding

Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force

ΣFy = m•ay

ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction

N—W—F•Sin20 = 0

N = W+F•Sin20

N = 245+ 200Sin20

N = 245 + 68.4

N = 313.4 N

The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten

Naya [18.7K]

We might have a trouble viewing the general part of galaxy because :   the Milky Way's center is so brilliant and filled with stars, it has been particularly challenging for astronomers to examine it because it is impossible to distinguish individual stars and clusters.

<h3>What is a Milky Way ?</h3>

There are many stars, grains of dust, and gas in the Milky Way. It is known as a spiral galaxy because, from the top or bottom, it would appear to be whirling like a pinwheel. About 25,000 light-years from the galaxy's nucleus, the Sun is situated on one of the spiral arms.

The Milky Way galaxy is made up of billions of stars, as well as gas and dust, which are all drawn to one another by gravitational pull, as well as a significant amount of dark matter. Our galaxy is approximately 100,000 light years [e1] across.
